Twitter Responses to ChatGPT in Education Spaces (January 21-25)

We aggregated a Twitter dataset utilizing Twitter Archiving Google Sheet (TAGS) to interact with Twitter’s API and return relevant data. To analyze the education and marketing sides of the conversation, we decided to scrape 2 datasets with #ChatGPT as a common hashtag to target tweets talking about AI. This is the education dataset, where we narrowed our search by analyzing Tweets also containing “education”, “academic”, or “teach” to see the conversation around ChatGPT being used in an academic setting and as a potential teaching tool. Many professors and teachers would often use these hashtags when talking about things relating to higher-level education and academia. Because of the TAGS limitation, our dataset was limited to tweets ranging from January 21st to January 25th for both datasets.
